WPT Adds New Canadian Stop

The WPT has added a new event to its schedule taking place at the Fallsview Casino Resort.

The WPT will be returning to Canada for a CAD$5,000 Main Event at the Fallsview Casino Resort just outside Toronto. It will be a single entry, three day tournament running from Feb. 22-24 at the end of the week-long, three-event Fallsview Poker Classic Tournament series.

Adam Pliska, the WPT President said, “Poker is more popular than ever in Canada, and our players have been asking us to add another WPT stop north of the border. We’re thrilled to accommodate them by adding this great new event to the tour, and we look forward to another fantastic event on Canadian soil.”

It is possible to buy directly into the event or qualify through satellites which are already running.

Greg Medulun, the Director of Communications at Fallsview Casino Resort said, “The return of the WPT is exciting news for all talented and notable poker enthusiasts. Our casino is well-suited to host what will be a definite sold-out event given the added excitement WPT brings.”
